Amul Whipping Cream
Published · Last updated
A realistic serve of Amul Whipping Cream (30 mL, one serve) has 88 kcal, 0.5 g protein, 1.3 g carbohydrate, 9 g fat, 0 g added sugar and 6 mg sodium. Per 100 g it has 294 kcal, 1.7 g protein, 4.2 g carbohydrate, 30 g fat, 19 g saturated fat, 0 g added sugar and 20 mg sodium.
Amul Whipping Cream is a shelf-stable dairy cream sold for topping cakes, pastries and desserts. It scores [L]ED3: nutrition is lowest because it is nearly all fat, ingredients lose points for the emulsifier blend and for a name and low-fat label the list does not support, and risk is moderate on saturated fat. Use it by the spoonful, not the cupful.

Why Amul Whipping Cream scores [L]ED3
Nutrition is an E because the cream is almost all fat, with 1.7 g protein per 100 mL. Ingredients are a D for the emulsifier blend and label gaps, and risk is a 3 on 19 g saturated fat.
Very low nutrient density
- Protein
- 1.7 g
- Fibre
- Not declared
- Vitamins and minerals
- Calcium
- Energy
- 294 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein is 1.7 g per 100 mL and there is no fibre, so nothing earns credit. The 294 kcal per 100 mL come almost entirely from 30 g of fat.
Calcium is declared at 110 mg per 100 mL, but it is too small to add a bonus, so the grade stays at the bottom.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why D
Milk fat, water and milk solids are plain dairy ingredients, with no percentages declared. The cost is the emulsifier blend: cellulose (460), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (464), carboxymethyl cellulose (466), mono- and diglycerides (471) and DATEM (472e) each cost ingredient points, and 466 costs the most. Emulsifier 472b is listed as well.
Label integrity costs more. The name promises cream and no cream is listed, which sets the [L]. The Low Fat Cream wording next to 30 g fat per 100 mL costs further points.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Moderate risk
- Added sugar
- 0 g
- Sodium
- 20 mg
- Saturated fat
- 19 g
- Trans fat
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 3
Saturated fat is 19 g per 100 mL, almost four times the 5 g high line, and it drives the risk number. One 30 mL serve has 5.7 g.
Sodium is only 20 mg per 100 mL and energy adds little on top. Added sugar and trans fat are both 0 g, so they play no part.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
[L] The name or pack claims promise more than the ingredient list delivers. See Claims vs reality.

Does Amul Whipping Cream live up to its claims?
The 30% milk fat figure holds, but the cream name and the low-fat label do not. Fat is 30 g per 100 mL and no cream is listed.
- Product nameMisleading
“Amul Whipping Cream”
No cream is listed. The ingredients are milk fat, water, milk solids and emulsifiers, even though the front says pure milk cream.
- On the packMisleading
“UHT Treated Whipping Cream (Low Fat Cream)”
Fat is 30 g per 100 mL, well over the low-fat line, and 19 g of it is saturated.
- On the packHolds
“30% Milk Fat”
The panel shows 30 g fat per 100 mL, so about 9 g in a 30 mL serve.
- On the packBe careful
“Contains MILK FAT only”
Milk fat leads the list, but water, milk solids and six emulsifier codes follow it.
What's in Amul Whipping Cream?
Milk fat, water and milk solids lead, followed by six emulsifier codes. The emulsifier blend and the saturated fat are what to watch.
9 ingredients listed. None of them is an additive or watched ingredient in our research. 6 more entries look like additives we have not researched yet.
The ingredient list, read for you
Milk fat comes first, then water and milk solids, so the product is dairy fat diluted and stabilised for whipping. No percentages are declared. The last item is a group of emulsifier codes: 460, 464, 466, 471, 472b and 472e, which help the cream hold its shape and stay smooth on the shelf.
Not in our additive research yet: INS 460; INS 464; INS 466; INS 471; INS 472b; INS 472e.
Ingredients to watch
- Cream named but not listedConcern
The name and front say cream, yet the list shows milk fat, water and milk solids. This sets the [L] and costs ingredient points.
- Saturated fatConcern
19 g per 100 mL, almost four times the 5 g high line. One 30 mL serve has 5.7 g.
- Low Fat Cream wordingConcern
The front uses it, but fat is 30 g per 100 mL, over the low-fat line.
- Emulsifier blendWorth watching
Cellulose (460), 464, carboxymethyl cellulose (466), 471 and DATEM (472e) each cost ingredient points. Emulsifier 472b is also listed.
- Sugar and trans fatFine
Added sugar is 0 g and trans fat is 0 g per 100 mL.
What it doesn’t have
- No percentages are declared for the milk fat, water or milk solids.
What to know about Amul Whipping Cream
Mostly fat, with a low-fat label on the front
Amul Whipping Cream is a 250 mL UHT-treated dairy cream made from milk fat, water, milk solids and a blend of six emulsifier codes (460, 464, 466, 471, 472b, 472e). No percentages are declared. Home bakers buy it to whip as a topping for cakes, pastries and desserts, and the pack says it keeps without refrigeration until opened.
The pack counts 8 serves of 30 mL. One serve gives 88 kcal, 9 g fat, 5.7 g saturated fat and 0.5 g protein. Per 100 mL that is 294 kcal, 30 g fat and 19 g saturated fat, against 1.7 g protein, 0.0 g added sugar and 110 mg calcium.
The name and the front say cream, but the ingredient list shows no cream, only milk fat, water and milk solids. The front also says Low Fat Cream beside a fat content of 30 g per 100 mL, which is over the low-fat line. Both cost the label points. CleanPlate scores it [L]ED3.
